Hi
Am going to be 46 in January () and have 3 dc who are 8, 10, and 13.
I have been a SAHM for 13 years now and really want to get back into work. I have never been a super confident person and feel even less so at the age I am now - I don't want to be "judged" for being "middle-aged". I live in London where I honestly think people are more youth and image conscious than other places (always feel more liked for myself in other places iyswim) and don't want to be compared to uber trendy younger people (apologies if I am generalising I am kind of envious anyway). I also have quite wonky teeth which does not help.
I suppose I would like to hear of your experiences of going back to work after a long gap. Am in danger of hibernating forever and I really don't want to do that as I want to earn money and carve a new interesting life for myself.
I suppose I would like confirmation that I could still be wanted in the workplace ?
